For being cross-compiled to generic bare-metal targets such as 
powerpc-eabi where you can't do link tests (because unless an option such 
as -msim to select particular board-support code is passed you can't link 
at all, even with target libc present), maybe.  For cross-compiling to 
GNU/Linux targets we require the target libc to be available for link 
tests in order to configure libraries for non-C languages; you can't build 
shared libraries without having the shared libc to link them with.
